Chapter 149 Negotiating terms? Ha—
[Yes, host! Duoduo has accurately detected that the Great Bamboo Lemur tribe has deployed thirty-two beastmen this time, a powerful force. Among them are two gray-rank powerhouses, nine red-rank experts, three brown-rank warriors, and the rest are all orange-rank combatants. At this moment, they are engaged in a fierce and protracted battle with the Treasure-Seeking Rat tribe.]
[On the Treasure-Hunting Rat Tribe's side, a total of twenty-eight orcs have engaged in battle: three gray-rank, ten red-rank, four brown-rank, and the remaining eleven orange-rank. Both sides are exchanging blows, suffering varying degrees of damage. The battlefield situation is changing rapidly; every second could rewrite the course of the battle, Host!]
Upon hearing this, Ruan Xiyue lowered her eyes, her mind racing like a high-speed, sophisticated instrument, rapidly analyzing the situation:
The immediate choice is to lead one's own forces, join hands with the Treasure-Seeking Rat Tribe, launch a thunderous siege against the Bamboo Lemur Tribe, and seize the greatest immediate benefit.
Let's hold back for now, wait for the Treasure-Seeking Rat Tribe and the Great Bamboo Lemur Tribe to fight to the death, and when the Great Bamboo Lemur Tribe is left with only remnants, then lead the two tribes of orcs to deliver a fatal blow, so as to obtain the greatest victory with the least cost.
Ruan Xiyue pondered for a moment, then suddenly turned her gaze to Li Miao, who had been quietly standing to the side and remained silent, and gave him a deep look.
Then, she resolutely turned around, facing the two orc races she had brought out, and said in a firm and powerful voice: "Listen carefully, the enemy ahead is the Great Bamboo Lemur Clan. This time they have come out in full force, a total of thirty-two orcs. Among them are two gray-rank powerhouses, nine red-rank experts, three brown-rank warriors, and the rest are all orange-rank combatants."
"On the other hand... it seems the orcs from the Spirit Fox Tribe have arrived as well! Now, with our three races united, we only have thirteen red-rank members and just one brown-rank member..."
“Ahem… allow me to interject,” Li Miao suddenly spoke, his eyes fixed on Ruan Xiyue, a cryptic and cold smile playing on his lips: “As long as Holy Mother Xiyue has any requests, I will do my utmost to assist her.”
Ruan Xiyue looked at Li Miao, nodded slightly, and said succinctly, "Thank you."
Li Miao raised one eyebrow and said slowly, "However, I'm not helping for free; I naturally have conditions."
Upon hearing this, Ruan Xiyue frowned instantly, turned her head, and coldly said, "Then there's no need."
Ruan Xiyue sneered inwardly, thinking that his people had already died from war, and he was still thinking of making conditions before he would help.
She had just remembered that he had offered to help, that he was a kind-hearted orc. She couldn't bear to see more low-ranking orcs sacrificed in vain because of her delay, and she had planned to send troops to support them immediately.
But now it seems she can plan for as long as she wants!
Ideally, we should wait until the Great Bamboo Lemur tribe and the Treasure-Seeking Rat tribe are both severely weakened and have only a few wounds left. Then, we can wipe out the Great Bamboo Lemur tribe with minimal casualties and gain the credit for healing the Treasure-Seeking Rat tribe!
Li Miao narrowed his eyes, his expression calm and composed, as if Ruan Xiyue's rejection was nothing out of the ordinary.
Li Miao watched Ruan Xiyue's retreating figure in silence.
Long Ze frowned slightly. He was extremely disgusted by the way Li Miao looked at Ruan Xiyue. There was no sense of simple rivalry between men in that gaze.
Instead, it was as if they treated Ruan Xiyue as prey that could be hunted down and captured at any time.
A cold glint flashed in Long Ze's ruby-like eyes as he gave Li Miao a deep look.
He clenched his fists secretly, knowing that he was still a little lacking in strength. If he were stronger, he would never allow Li Miao to look at Ruan Xiyue with such eyes.
Ruan Xiyue ignored Li Miao and turned to look at all the orcs in front of her. She continued, "We have six gray-ranked warriors, eight orange-ranked warriors, and the rest are yellow-ranked and green-ranked warriors."
"My battle plan is for the Yellow-rank and Green-rank warriors to be deployed on the outermost perimeter."
After a while, the high-ranking orcs took charge of the attack.
If any of the Great Bamboo Lemur tribe beastmen attempt to escape, the Yellow and Green rank males must cooperate and attack with all their might; not a single enemy must be allowed to escape!
As soon as the words were spoken, a group of orcs, their blood boiling, raised their right fists high and slammed them into the air, letting out deafening roars: "Roar! Roar! Roar!"
The sound was so powerful that it seemed to shake the heavens and earth.
"[Duoduo, tell me quickly, what is the current situation of casualties on both sides?]" Ruan Xiyue asked anxiously in her mind.
The system immediately responded: [Host, almost all of the orange-tier orcs on both sides have been killed or wounded! The Great Bamboo Lemur tribe has lost a gray-tier expert, but the Treasure-Seeking Rat tribe has also lost a red-tier expert.]
The situation remains tense, and the fighting is still at a fever pitch!
Ruan Xiyue looked up at the afternoon sun slowly setting on the horizon. After a moment's thought, she decisively ordered, "Everyone, rest for another half hour, and then we'll head towards Fierce Ear Beast City immediately!"
Long Ze stared at Ruan Xiyue, who was giving orders. Her naturally curved lips curled up uncontrollably, and a smile spread from the bottom of her heart to the corners of her eyes and brows, which she could not suppress.
He loved her confident, assertive, and decisive nature from the bottom of his heart!
Recalling their first meeting, he remembered how she sat gracefully on his back and accurately shot that fatal arrow at the Holy Mother. From that moment on, his heart was deeply captivated by her.
That was no ordinary arrow; it was clearly a sharp arrow of Cupid, piercing straight into his heart, causing him to fall into despair from that moment on, never to be able to extricate himself.
From that initial fleeting glimpse to hearing that she jumped off the arena to protect him and declare war on Qin Huan, his heart was deeply moved by her, and his affection for her remains unwavering to this day...
His love for her was like a vine growing vigorously in spring, growing stronger and stronger, winding and taking root in his heart.
Qin Ye's gaze shifted back and forth between Ruan Xiyue and his brother beside him, before slowly looking at his own hands. His eyes gradually hardened, and his palms clenched tightly, his knuckles turning slightly white from the force.
Brother is right. Given Yue'er's current ambition, his own strength is indeed falling short of her pace.
But what's the harm?
He secretly vowed in his heart that he must make himself stronger.
One step at a time, one step at a time, and another step at a time. Even if this path to becoming stronger is full of thorns and hardships, he will never back down.
He would take it one step at a time, steadily moving closer to her, until one day he could stand shoulder to shoulder with her, shelter her from the wind and rain, and become her strongest support.
From his initial attraction to her to his current determination to overcome all obstacles for her, this emotion has been sublimated in his heart and transformed into endless motivation for his struggle.
